This research paper aspired to design and develop a gas leakage and fire monitoring and detection alarm system based on SMS. Most fire incidents in houses, schools and factories are caused by gas leakage. Many houses and factories are being destroyed by fire and gas leakage. To prevent the loss of life and properties, preventive measures should be taken, hence this research was conceptualized. The installation of a GF (Gas and Fire) alert system to vulnerable locations may help lessen if not totally eliminate the dangers posed by gas leakage and fire.

The GF system was designed and develop to prevent the loss of life and properties caused by gas leakages & fire thus ensuring the safety of life and property. The design of the GF system is composed of hardware and software integrated and programmed to work as gas and fire detector. The programs are coded using embedded C-language. Tests performed on the developed GF system shows excellent response in detecting gas leaks and fire with short time delay. On the other hand, sending of SMS alert shows promising results with few seconds time delay. Also, the network signal of the place of installation affects the performance of the device to send text messages.
